What a worthless company and terrible…
What a worthless company and terrible after-sales service. The balls keep getting stuck in front of the rollers and therefore don't come out of the machine. I have already sent many emails about this, but they offer 0.0 support and are unable to help me with this problem in any way. I have invested €95 in new balls and still no result. They keep referring me to the distributor in the Netherlands. That is just a dealer who can't help me either. Here is their response:
I understand how frustrating this situation is. However, since the Slinger Bag was originally purchased through the distributor and you are not the original purchaser, any support or service arrangements would need to be handled directly with them by the original buyer.

Hello Ron,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
We would like to address your concerns and clarify the situation. Our team has been responding to your emails and providing guidance based on the information available to us.
Because your unit is a Slinger Padel machine, service and replacement parts are handled by our Global Distributor, who is equipped to support this specific product and region. While our USA support team is limited in what we can directly supply in this case, our goal is to make sure you’re connected with the right team who can resolve this for you as quickly as possible.
If it would be helpful, we’re more than happy to facilitate an introduction and include you directly in communication with the distributor to help move things forward.
We appreciate your patience and remain here to support you in any way we can.
Best regards,
Slinger Support

Hi Lisa,
Thank you for your feedback, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with your order.
We understand how important timely delivery is and sincerely regret any frustration this may have caused. While we aim to process and ship orders within 1–3 business days, shipping timelines are ultimately dependent on the courier once the package leaves our facility.
After reviewing your order, I can confirm it was placed on Friday, March 13 at 3:19 PM (ET), which was after our shipping cut-off time. As our warehouse is closed on weekends, the order was processed and shipped on the next business day, Monday, March 16.
Transit times can vary depending on location, and as your order was shipping to the opposite coast, delivery times are typically longer than for addresses closer to the warehouse.
I can see that your order has now been delivered, and I’m sorry it took longer than expected to arrive. If you need any assistance with your product, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re happy to help.

Avoid Slinger Bag at all costs.
Avoid Slinger Bag at all costs.
This was one of the most frustrating and unprofessional purchasing experiences I’ve had. Before placing my order, I did exactly what any serious buyer should do—I contacted their support team to clarify key specs like battery life and ball speed/acceleration. The agent sent me a link and pushed me to proceed.
The next day—after I had already engaged with their team and was ready to buy—they increased the price. That’s not a coincidence. That’s a company taking advantage of a “warm” customer. It’s cheap, opportunistic behavior and shows zero respect for customers.
This kind of move screams poor management, zero internal coordination, and a complete lack of business ethics. If leadership allows this, it tells you everything you need to know about the company.
And the product itself? Completely overrated. Once you actually look into it, it’s a glorified bag with a launcher—not a serious training machine. Performance is mediocre, features are limited, and it feels like you’re paying for marketing hype rather than real engineering.
Do not waste your time or money.
Spend a little more and go with the difference in quality, reliability, and overall professionalism is night and day.

Hi Giorgi,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear about your experience and the frustration this has caused. This is certainly not the impression we want to leave with our customers.
Regarding the recent pricing change, we understand how the timing may have felt from your perspective. Please know that these adjustments are never made lightly. Due to rising costs, we had to update pricing across our products, and this decision was not influenced by your recent email. That said, we recognize how this may have been perceived and sincerely apologize for any inconvenience or concern it may have caused.
We’d also like to clarify that our support team is here to answer questions about the machine, not to pressure customers into making a purchase. Our goal is to provide helpful, accurate information so you can make the decision that’s right for you. After reviewing your phone call with our team, it appears your questions were addressed thoroughly, and we do not believe the call was intended as a sales interaction. That said, we’re sorry it came across that way to you.
As for the issues mentioned with the battery or launcher, we’d really appreciate the opportunity to assist you directly as we cannot find an order under your name. Please feel free to reach out to our support team, and we will do our best to help resolve any concerns or technical issues you may be experiencing.

Slinger no longer…
I purchased my Slinger Pickleball Machine in February 2024 and received it in March 2024.
Since then, I’ve experienced repeated hardware failures that raise serious concerns about the product’s reliability and durability.
In September 2025, the machine stopped working and I was told the PCB (control board) needed to be replaced. Although the unit was already out of warranty, I was provided a replacement PCB.
Now, in March 2026, the machine has failed again with the same issue — requiring yet another PCB replacement, which is currently out of stock. I’ve been placed on a notification list with no clear timeline.
Needing three PCB boards (including the original) within two years is unacceptable for a machine at this price point and suggests a deeper design or quality issue.
Additionally, in August 2024 I requested replacement ball tubes because the adjustment knobs broke off, making them unusable. After months of follow-up, I finally received replacements — but those knobs have now started breaking as well.
This indicates a consistent problem with component durability, not just a one-time defect.
Overall, while the concept of the Slinger machine is great, my experience has been marked by repeated failures, fragile parts, and delays in getting replacements.
I cannot recommend this product based on long-term reliability.

Love the bag
Love the bag. It has improved my game. Some have mentioned the topspin being problematic. I don't find it to be true. It has no more topspin than a heavy hitting 4.5 player. Even at top speeds, it's not overwhelming. It's helped me work on taking balls on the rise and made my serve returns way better. Only regret it not buying sooner!

Support and parts: after 2 years the control panel stopped working. I contacted customer support and they walked me through everything. I bought a new panel and replaced it. My slinger bag is working great again! The process was very easy and the part arrived at my home within a few days, so I can keep practicing my tennis.

Hi Paul,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I completely understand your frustration, and I’m sorry that the cost of the screws and shipping felt unreasonable.
While the screws themselves are a low-cost item, the shipping and handling fee covers more than just postage. This includes order processing, packaging, handling, tracking, and courier fees, which apply regardless of the size of the item. Unfortunately, we’re unable to ship parts using standard letter mail, as all orders must be sent through our courier system to ensure delivery confirmation and support in case of any issues.
That said, we truly value your feedback, and comments like yours help us continue to review and improve our processes where possible.

Love the launcher but there are issues
Love the launcher, however I have issues. 1)The tabs on the ball tube eventually snap off. I am on my 3rd ball tube, waiting for my replacement. I have been waiting for almost 3 month, out of stock is all I get back from support. If I ever get a replacement ball tube. I have requested the warranty is extended by the amount of time it takes to get a replacement. Otherwise Slinger can refund me 55 dollars which is the cost of a replacement. I am not impressed that if I ever get a replacement that in the 1 year warranty I will be on my 4th ball tube. 2) I have complained about the power cable that connects to the power supply. ~every 3 months I will not have power. So I pull out the power supply and the power cable is no longer fasten and I have to reconnect the cable. I laughed when support wanted pictures of the issue. A picture with the cable on the PS, then a picture with the cable off the PS, give me a break. 3) I complained the latch for the door does not reach the hook. Support wanted pictures again. I had to go buy a longer latch to allow it to reach the hook. I have seen picture of used Slinger Bags where the door was ready to fall off where they over stretched the door/latch.

Above the top Customer Service
I sent my Slinger bag to a wrong direction. As I realized that I got in contact with Joel who was always open to support my case, follow it up and gave me clear information on how to solve the issue.
As my intention was to give the Slinger Bag as Christmas gift I decided to purchase a second one while waiting for the first one to be returned to Slingerbag warehouse.
Then Tania took care of my case and funds were properly refunded to my credit card the same day that the warehouse received the returned package.
Never seen that kind of service and attitude to repair a mistake made by the customer.

All of the marketing talks about…
All of the marketing talks about oscillating, but had no clue that you have to pay another couple hundred dollars for that feature!
December 1, 2025
Reply from Slinger Bag
Hi Jason,
Thank you for your feedback, and we’re sorry for any confusion this may have caused.
We’d like to clarify that the oscillation feature is provided through a separate oscillator accessory and is not built into the Slinger Bag by default. This design allows us to offer flexibility for a wide range of players. Many users prefer a fixed ball feed for repetition-based drills, while others choose to add oscillation for more varied training.
By offering the oscillator as an optional add-on, customers are not required to pay extra for a feature they may not need, while still having the option to upgrade their setup based on their training goals.
We appreciate you sharing your experience, as feedback like this helps us improve how clearly we communicate our product features. If you have any questions or would like assistance choosing the right configuration, our support team is always happy to help.
